Whisper skipped padt Drake, Eric and Bine, garlands of flowers draped over her antlers.

Erik
He saw the reindeer skip by, and he had an urge to go and talk to her, but stayed in place.
I can't just run off! I have to be here for Bone! Besides, who knows if she's going to react the same way Bone did, or worse! I don't want that to happen again! He shivered, but recovered, trying to hide it away from Drake and Bone.

Bone nudged him "Go talk to her. Ive seen her around, she wont react like i did, i promise."

Erik
He slightly jumped.
"Oh? You're sure?" He raised his shoulders and ducked his head, rubbing his neck. He looked back at the reindeer.
Well...If Bone's right, then I guess it's ok....

Bone nodded and lightly shoved him "Gooooooo"

Whusper knelt by a rose bush, inspecting the flowers.

Erik
"Ha, alright, alright! I'll go!" He skipped away, and began to walk slowly towards her.
When he was close enough, he coughed and quietly spoke.
"Um..H-Hi there...I, I'm.." He looked down, twisting his feet.

Whisper looked over and stood up "Im Whisper. And your name is Eric, right? I heard you guys talking."

Erik
"Oh, yeah! I'm Erik, it's nice to meet you Whisper!" He had a nervous expression, and extended his arm to shake hands.

Whisper pulled him into a hug "Hi!"

Erik
He tensed up, but tried to relax.
"Huh, th-this is surprising!" He laughed, trying to make the situation less awkward for him.

Drake
Drake looked over towards Erik and Whisper, and chuckled as she hugged him.
"Wow, seems they're getting along pretty well!"
